Advantages: Quiet, Excellent hardfloor cleaning, easy to use. Disadvantages: Not so great on pet hair, eats bags!!
To cut to the chase me & vacuum cleaners don't get on! I break them or they are just not right for me! I recently purchased a Dyson dco7 upright It's a superb vacuum but i think they have used the decommisioned concorde engines in them as the noise was horrendusly loud & it was too big & bulky so i needed a different model.
I prefer a cylinder type cleaner & had heard great things about the Miele range & i have not been dissapointed. The above disadvantages refer more to my choice of model than Miele as a brand.The model in question is the MieleS381. It has an 1800 watt motor & is refered to on Miele's website as being bahamablue in colour. It seems to be the most basic cleaner in the Miele line up & cost £99 from Currys. I have looked in several other stores & have not seen this particular model anywhere elese.

Advantages: Paradise Island Disadvantages: Staying Too Long
. Christmas, sun, sea and sand! Rainy season between June and November; hurricanes usually bypass the Bahamas. The sea is turquoise/blue, the visibility is over 200 feet and water is warm.

Seawater being so transparent you can admire all sorts of beautiful colourful fish as well as crustaceans. But also dangerous varieties like barracudas, sharks, piranhas and rays. It is wise to stay on guarded beaches - in fact where all the Americans go. I have nothing against Americans but I ...
Advantages: The Beaches, the year round climate, the people Disadvantages: Long flights often stopping at other islands, quite expensive to eat, not good for vegetarians
whether I had to pay or not as some booklets say there is a cost and some don’t (the rep’s tours charge you entrance fee unsurprisingly!!). But when we turned up there was no one around to pay so I would say don’t bother pre-paying and only pay the park warden if you see him (certainly do not add to the tour company’s profits by paying unnecessarily!).
One final place I would recommend, especially if you have children is Garden of the Groves. As well as a well kept tropical garden with loads of plants and flowers there is also several animal attractions. Being the big kid that I am, I actually enjoyed feeding the fish and goats!!! It costs $9.95 admission, and without children you can ‘do’ the whole park in under 2 hours.
Snorkelling is also BIG on the island. The Bahamas has 5% of the World’ ...
